Bimmian Carbon Overlay Kit - BMW 1 Series Coupe Forum / 1 Series Convertible Forum (1M / tii / 135i / 128i / Coupe / Cabrio / Hatchback) (BMW E82 E88 128i 130i 135i)

Anyone have any experience with this kit for the 1er?

I've got several items from bimmian and it has always been good quality, but I haven't seen anyone who has this particular kit.

Anyone out there have this or know someone who does? Its obviously less expensive than the OEM stuff, but what is attracting me more is the fact that I won't have to completely disassemble my car install it.

Thanks in advance!

BUY IT!!! Very good quality! I would post pics but my car is at the dealer with a blown pressure plate...its gonna be awhile...

how many pieces is it/what does it cover?

does it look like the oem trim?

I've got them on my E81

You get enough to cover all the roundels on the car, and its very difficult to tell there not OEM.

Those look nice, but I'm actually talking about the interior trim overlay kit.

Sorry bud, my bad lol

This is a 6 piece kit to cover all of the interior trim pieces on the car. We've had good experience with the overlay kits in the past, we use them for the E46 and E9X models too. It's a solid alternative to full replacement kits like the Hartge setup which is pretty expensive.

So this includes:

(2) Door Handles
(1) Shifter Surround
(1) Ash Tray Surround
(1) Ash Tray Door
(1) Dash Strip

What am I missing, or is that accurate?

Nick, have you got any pictures?
